Context

“And on and on, until he’d dreamed up a whole machine that cut hair like nobody’s business. And he sold his plans for a hundred thousand bucks and royalties, and I don’t guess he has to worry about anything any more. “Ever stop to think what a funny thing the human mind is? And there you are, sir, how’s that look to you?” “Sumklish,” said the Shah, and he took a long drink from the flask Khashdrahr handed him. He studied himself soberly in the mirror Bigley held up for him.” source
